Our mission is to preserve New Church audio recordings and make them available to all. We provide audiobooks of works by Emanuel Swedenborg, recordings of New Church sermons, Swedenborgian classes, and more. These offer opportunities for Bible study and spiritual growth, exploring Biblical symbolism and New Church theology.

New Church Audio is a program of The New Church, an international Christian organization.

The New Church is a Christian denomination based on the Bible and the revelation given to Emanuel Swedenborg. We believe that true faith is loving the Lord Jesus Christ by following his teachings and being of service to others.

    Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 23 May, 2021

  • Bargaining with the Lord

    Worship Service: Sermon only - 23 May, 2021

    How could Abraham bargain with the Lord? Would the Lord change His mind? What do those numbers of "good" people, for whom the Lord would not destroy Sodom, mean? Spiritually, what does it take to be "saved?" Or, how bad can I be and still be saved? These questions find some surprising answers in the story. | By Rt. Rev. Brian W. Keith , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • The Holy Spirit

    Worship Service: Sermon only - 9 May, 2021

    While the teachings of the New Church are clear that there is not a trinity of persons in God as traditional Christian doctrine teaches, those teachings do speak about Father, Son and Holy Spirit as the three essential components of God. In this trinity, what quality of God is the Holy Spirit and how does this quality of the Lord affect our lives? | By Rev. Eric H. Carswell , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • Hope in the Face of Fear

    Worship Service: Sermon only - 2 May, 2021

  • Understanding the Lord's Word

    Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 18 Apr, 2021

    There are many wonderful teachings in the Word that remind us of what the Lord wants us to think, do, and say. They remind us of how much He loves us and wants to lead each of us to a heavenly home. There are other statements that seem harsh and cruel. How does the Lord want us to understand them? | By Rev. Eric H. Carswell , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • Hard Statements: Breaking the Two Testaments of Stone

    Worship Service: Sermon only - 18 Apr, 2021

    Reading particularly in the Old Testament, but also in places in the New Testament, we can run across statements that not only do not reflect a loving God, but actually convey the opposite idea. If we are to hold onto the idea that the Lord is perfect love expressing itself in perfect wisdom, we need to know why the Word speaks so differently from what we might expect. | By Rev. Eric H. Carswell , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

    Worship Service: Family (may include music) - 28 Mar, 2021

    The people of Jerusalem rejoiced as Jesus rode into the city on Palm Sunday. But they didn't know what kind of a leader He intended to be. Can we accept the Lord as a God who comes to help us? | By Rev. Eric H. Carswell , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • Palm Sunday: A King Who Comes to Serve

    Worship Service: Sermon only - 28 Mar, 2021

    The Lord is constantly working in the most specific ways with each of us from the beginning of life to lead us to be happily married to eternity.

This is why our religion, with its teachings, is so inseparably tied in with conjugial love and its promise for happiness. | By Rt. Rev. David H. Lindrooth , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • Conjugial Love, a Most Precious Gem of the New Church

    Worship Service: Sermon only - 14 Mar, 2021

    The New Church offers a unique view of marriage that is inseparably tied in with the life of the church and its teachings . By definition, because of its origin, and from the nature of its love, the New Church vision of marriage is different from the way marriage and its love is defined in our culture today. That unique view invites a different approach to attaining that love. It also promises a love that is eternal in nature and is in its essence heavenly. It is truly a most precious gift from the Lord alone. | By Rt. Rev. David H. Lindrooth , Bryn Athyn Cathedral

  • The Good Samaritan: Binding Up Wounds
